Oliver, There's only one slight problem I have noticed with your Logo... that is the far most left circle is not as close to the center as the other two are. Maybe its just my eyes deceiving me.

So I want to pick 1 font that we use across the whole of Breathe, regardless of icon.

Something I thought about a while ago but never addressed 'till now. What font should we standardize on when we need text on an icon? -Cory K. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] accessories-calculator/help-about submissions
Hi, Milan. I really like the updated version of accessories-calculator. Great work! My only concern it's the 16px icon. I think it's too small and maybe you could take off some buttons to make the icon a little bigger. About the fonts, I used mostly Droid for my icons (sudo apt-get install ttf-droid in Jaunty). -- Seba (AKA spg76) http://www.ubuntu-ar.org -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

Thanks Smartboy and David. I tried metacity --update, which seems have no effect on my machine, while metacity --replace does seem to have effect only on some occasions.
